1-7 Railway Terrace

1-7 Railway Terrace consists of railway cottages, likely built in the 1870s for a midland railway company. The cottages are constructed of brick with Welsh slate roofs and stand two storeys tall. They are symmetrically arranged, with each house comprising two bays under a half-hipped roof, except for the middle house, which slightly projects forward and features a gabled roof.

All openings display polychromatic brick pointed arches. The entrances to houses 1, 4, and 7 are each topped with a brick cornice. Houses 2 and 3, as well as 5 and 6, are paired under a gable adorned with decorative polychromatic brickwork. The doors feature diagonal boarding and cusped overlights. The windows are four-pane sashes with raised sills, and there is a two-course brick band at the first-floor sill level. Decorative barge-boards embellish the roofs, with those on the half-hipped roofs pierced with trefoils, although some are missing. Each end valley has a tall ornamental brick stack with a heavy plinth and cornice, while two simpler stacks flank the central gable. Additionally, each return has three small staircase lights.

The rear elevation mirrors the front but is more plain. Each dwelling includes a yard with a small back-to-back coal-place.
